Mountain biking in Aalborg

Do you like challenges and excitement and want to experience nature around Aalborg? If so, you can take a mountain bike trip on the freshly laid mountain bike routes in the forests around Aalborg...

Routes for mountain bikers

In the forests around Aalborg, four marked mountain bike routes are located. The four routes are in Hammer Hills, Lundby Hills, by Poulstrup Lake and in Kongshøj Forest. They are marked with posts, pictograms and tags on trees. The four routes all have their own track which means that bike riders do not collide with pedestrians. The routes were created in cooperation with the largest exercise bike clubs that wished for biking routes of different degrees of difficulty. This way, consideration has been shown for beginners as well as for experienced bikers. Three of the routes are located in nature areas south of Aalborg, and in 2010 they were connected as transit routes, which made it possible to ride one long coherent trip of 25-30 kilometres. However, the routes are not for mountain bike riders exclusively; they can be used by anyone who would like to try biking in different terrain.

Kongshøj Forest for the wild

With its chalky hills, Kongshøj Forest near Visse has the studiest terrain, which means it can withstand rampes and jumps if anyone would like to challenge themselves.

Hammer Hills for novices

For novices we recommend the route in Hammer Hills. This route does not have sharp corners, drastic inclines or drops. However, experienced bikers, with knowledge of the route, finds that if you speed up it does pose some challenges as the corners are then suddenly not that easy to pass.
